Between the 70 or so blogs I’m subscribed to and the random links my friends send me via email/aim/twitter, there are always interesting findings every week. Since my site is not set up for quick meta content updates, I think it’d be a good idea to do a weekly post to share these findings with my readers, and to summarize my own posts of the week.

- President Design Part2 – A design review of Senator John McCain’s campaign site. This is a follow up to the article I wrote for Senator Obama’s.
- Photoshop Tutorial: Mini Hendrix – A quick tutorial on creating a simple recursion effect using bitmap mode. I recreated this tutorial based on Kai Krause’s original(Photoshop v2) since I can no longer find his. It was one of my favorite tutorials when I started learning Photoshop.
Blogs from elsewhere
- Graphic Designer vs. Web Designer – Anthony raises an interesting topic about the roles of a web designer. The comment section is just as a good read as the article itself.

- ZhuZhu Is Alive!!! – After months of being MIA, my most favorite CA artist Zhuzhu finally updates his sketchbook thread. I remember the first time I stumbled upon ZhuZhu’s drawings, I spent two hours marveling over 40pages of his incredible work. He’s got so much range and a firm grasp of concept.
